The APC replacement battery RBC55 is an original replacement module for Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) of the brand APC. It serves as a direct replacement for the battery integrated in the device and is specifically developed for use in various APC UPS models. The battery is designed as a maintenance-free, sealed lead battery operating with suspended electrolyte, thus being leak-proof. This technology ensures safe and reliable power supply in case of an emergency, without requiring maintenance work or electrolyte replacement.
Applications
The RBC55 is intended for use in several APC UPS models, including SUA2200I, SUA3000I, SUA5000RMI5U (dual), SMT2200I, SMT3000I, SMT2200IC, and SMT3000IC. These models are used in IT infrastructures, server rooms, network centers, and other applications where uninterrupted power supply is critical. The battery fully replaces the old cartridge and is designed for replacement during ongoing operation, thereby avoiding interruption of power supply to connected devices.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The battery has a capacity of 816 Wh, ensuring sufficient energy supply for the respective UPS load in case of a power failure. The
lead-acid accumulator technology offers high energy density and a long service life, stated by the manufacturer to be between three and five years. The battery is housed in a robust, black-painted enclosure, ensuring mechanical stability and protection of internal components. Dimensions are 142 mm (width) × 183 mm (depth) × 173 mm (height), allowing it to fit exactly into the designated compartments of compatible UPS models.
Technology Explained Simply
The RBC55 is designed as a
sealed lead battery, where the electrolyte is held in a suspended state. This prevents leakage and allows safe installation in various orientations. The battery is delivered fully assembled and ready for use, enabling quick installation without additional assembly work. The
Plug-and-Play installation allows replacement without switching off the UPS or shutting down connected loads.
Compatibility and Accessories
The battery is specifically developed for the mentioned APC UPS models and has been tested and certified for 100% compatibility. Compatibility includes models such as SUA2200I, SUA3000I, SUA5000RMI5U (dual), SMT2200I, SMT3000I, SMT2200IC, and SMT3000IC. The RBC55 replaces the entire old battery cartridge and is directly usable.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply inserting the battery cartridge into the designated compartment of the UPS. The battery is already equipped with the necessary connections, so no additional connections or tools are required. The Plug-and-Play function enables replacement during ongoing operation, ensuring that the availability of connected systems is not affected.
Operational Advantages
Using the original APC battery RBC55 ensures high reliability and compatibility with the respective UPS models. The maintenance-free design reduces maintenance effort, and the leak-proof technology increases safety. The battery is designed for a service life of three to five years, enabling long-term use and reducing maintenance intervals. The warranty is two years, underscoring the quality and reliability of the product.
